I do not agree with the quote that is winning is everything because to win you must like what you’re doing‚ you must like your teammates‚ and you must have a good attitude. To begin‚ the quote‚ “Winning isn’t everything‚ it’s the only thing‚” is all wrong to me because you must like what you’re doing to win games. If you
